After John F. Kennedy Jr. died in a tragic plane crash in 1999, conspiracy theorists brewed up a rumour that political opponent Hillary Clinton had planned his death to rid the competition. Both had expressed interest in New York’s US Senate seat (and Clinton eventually won the vote), but reports revealed Kennedy had dropped the idea when he heard his friend was running. Investigations of the plane crash didn’t find foul play either, pinning the cause to disorientation based on Kennedy’s lack of experiencing piloting a plane alone at night.
